McKinnon's Meat Market in Somerville's Davis Square Squelches Rumors That It Is Closing

A landmark butcher shop that declared bankruptcy last week has allayed the fears of its worried customers as to its exact status.

According to a note at the top of its weekly ad, McKinnon's Meat Market in Somerville's Davis Square states that "there is no truth to the rumor that [the shop] is closing," which jibes with a Twitter post from last night that shows an identical message. There has been some chatter of late about a possible closure of the Elm Street store, including a post within the Davis Square LiveJournal that went up three days after we reported that the market was filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

As mentioned earlier, McKinnon's has until December 7 to file a statement of financial affairs and the schedules of what they owe.

The address for McKinnon's Meat Market is 239 Elm Street, Somerville, MA, 02144. Its website is at http://www.mckinnonsmeatmarket.com/
